How Long Have You Got? How Long Have You Got
-
- Society & Culture
This podcast shines a light on self-hood. Being human is not a one-size-fits-all. Regardless of where you’ve come from, becoming you is about the ownership of you. Our conversations trigger questions, and hope that they provide answers, too. We can each guide one another but, really, only you know what to do for you.
We speak with those making an impact right now and in the future. What is it that makes them who they are and do the things they do?
These stories seek to inspire, motivate, and maybe resonate; trying to understand how identity has shaped their successes and ‘failures’. It asks how they came to find a sense of purpose and a sense of identity.
Each episode delves into topics that touch on the very notion of identity. You might be surprised by what you hear. Our guests might even be surprised by what they say.
Grab a drink, get your walking shoes, or just find your space. How long have you got?

Don’t Yuck my Yum: Sex and Ownership of the Self
Welcome, everyone! For this week’s episode we’re talking to Shelby Sells: a love, sex, and life coach based in NYC. We sit down with her and discuss the importance of trust and communication in sex and relationships (you can even trust a one night stand, if the right communication for you is there), knowing what to ask for and the importance of self-play for knowing what you want and what you need, and that, ultimately, a fearful mind will always lead to a fearful heart – and what we can do about it.

What is a Real Man, Anyway?
For our second episode we welcome BBC journalist and host, Gavin Ramjaun. Gavin has been in the media industry for nearly 15 years, but in this episode we dig into what, actually, is masculinity and what does that look like in the 21st century for men and man-identifying individuals (spoiler alert: the ego has a lot to do with a lot…). We talk about being better allies as humans, and we shine a light on the importance of mental health for men - and what men can do about it. As ever, welcome aboard, find your space – how long have you got?
